It promotes physical health, stimulates the mind's potential, and touches one's innermost being at the heart centre. An integration of all aspects of Yoga is utilized, namely asana (posture), meditation, pranayam (breathwork), mantra (voice vibration), mudra (hand posture) and bandha (locks). It is this synthesis that is the secret to its magical ability to connect with the real you.
Kundalini Yoga is something that needs to be experienced, no words can replace it.
Open classes, every Monday, 6.00p.m at the Jack Brimble Centre, St Werburghs Rd - All most welcome! Prepare for life with an open heart and clear mind.

Oxfordshire

Bliss Divine Yoga
Address: 21 Rymers Lane, Cowley, Oxford  OX4 3JU
Contact: Tel: 07963 011807  /  Email: james [at] blissdivineyoga.co.uk
Website: www.blissdivineyoga.co.uk  |  Yoga Links
Instructor: James Reeves
Yoga Style: Sivananda
Description: Oxford-based Bliss Divine Yoga is all about getting back in touch with your body. Through the practice of Asana (steady pose), Pranayama (the breath) and working with awareness (meditation), the yogi gains access to a wealth of benefits.
So, what is Yoga? On its most surface level, yoga is a challenging, fun discipline that keeps the body fit. It regulates the internal organs and balances circulatory, respiratory and hormonal systems. Yoga alleviates stress, aids in the healing of physical injuries and illnesses and helps us reclaim our general sense of well-being. The practice works through the body to steady the mind, offering a real and lasting peace. Increased flexibility supports posture and health. Through the asana and pranayama work, the body is energetically realigned, helping to fight off illness and support well-being.
The style of yoga taught by Bliss Divine is Hatha, with the core of the class being rooted in Sivananda yoga. The class includes elements of Vinyasa (flow), precision, and a good balance of Ha (sun, or energetic) and Tha (moon, or restive/restorative) poses. The word Hatha translates to Sun & Moon, and Yoga means Union. One interpretation of this is that we are working with the practice to unite the Sun (Ha) elements of activity and dynamism with the Moon (Tha) elements of stillness, surrender and rejuvenation.
